This was wonderful. I love the brush techniques and picking up 2 different paints to create light and shadow. The paint medium was something new to me. Thank you for this wonderful tutorial. Painting is sooooooo therapeutic!
Very happy to have discovered your videos! You have a very calming manner and very clear instructions - thoroughly enjoyed the daisy video and also the bamboo. Thank you so much!
As someone new to the world of painting this is a wonderful tutorial! My new years resolution last year was at the young age of 50 to learn to draw and paint. I never took art in school because I couldn't even draw a decent stick figure so I was afraid to even try. But now I have decided its way past time I learned to do this. I went out and bought all sorts of art mediums. Pencils of all kinds, water color, acrylic and oil paints. But I thought I would learn to draw a little first, so now I realize you can do anything if you put your mind to it :) I am now ready to take on the paint brush. I have a long way to go but with great videos like this one I know I will have painting, and drawings I will be proud to show off. Thank you for showing me how I can create a beautiful daisy in simple strokes!!

Hi April, I just wanted to say that you have the most amazing tutorials for painting flowers. I watched your rose and it wowed me. These are one of the best flower tutorials I've ever seen. Thank you so much for taking the time to illustrate how you paint flowers. Absolutely stunning. You are an amazing teacher. :-)
Hello Debb, Thank you so much for your comment. I'm hoping to do another one soon. I teach a lot of classes and it's sometimes difficult to find the time. Thanks again. : )

I Thank God for sending me your way !!
I'm so happy to have found your videos. You are an excellent instructor. I haven't painted in 20+ years, I've been afraid to try again? After watching a couple of your videos, I feel confident that I can do this again!! Thank you for the opportunity to try once again an art I was once very good at doing. I feel as if I've gained years back once again. Now if I can just figure out how to find more of your videos...
April, you are a wonderful teacher, such a pleasant voice and clear and concise instructions. Thank you for all that you do to share your talent and knowledge. Peace and blessings to you from Canada.
I love flowers! They're my favorite thing to paint....But I've wanted to improve. You're a great teacher. I've saved this so I can practice. You're very patient!
It will take some practice but this one is good to start with. I hope to do a video on leaves soon. It's one that people are having trouble with. Thank you for watching.
It seems to be really easy to paint. Thank you for such a detailed video. It's inspiring me to try.) You're definitely marvellous! I think I've just found one more favourite channel.^^ P.S. I can't believe that there are people who dislike it.. Absolutely impossible!
Love your technique! Very easy to follow. I have been painting for nearly 20 years and always finding new ways to do things. You are awesome to watch. Thanks sharing!
Hey April, just started painting and i've chose acrylic to do so. I saw your video and followed your instructions and the result is amazing. The reactions i've got went from "you did not do this" to "where have you bought this" ,so you can imagine i was very happy with this. The way you explaine the techniques and the way you show these made it possible and got me hooked on painting. Thank you very much for this, Ben from Belgium
